Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

Can a tutor help my child get the GCSE grades needed for King George V College?

Absolutely. Our tutors specialise in helping students build the subject knowledge and exam technique needed to achieve their target GCSE grades. By focusing on your child's specific areas for improvement, they can grow their confidence and help them secure a place on their chosen A-Level courses.

My child is hoping to study at the University of Liverpool. Can tutors help with A-Levels too?

Yes, of course. We have a huge range of expert tutors for A-Level subjects who can provide the in-depth support your child needs to achieve the grades for competitive university courses. Many of our tutors have experience helping students with their university applications and personal statements too.

How do I choose the right tutor for my child?

You can browse tutor profiles to see their experience, qualifications, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend sending a message to a few tutors to explain your child's goals. This gives you a feel for their approach before you book a lesson.

How do I know the tutors are qualified and safe?

We take your child's safety very seriously. Every tutor is background-checked and we interview them to ensure their expertise. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

It's really important that your child feels comfortable with their tutor. That's why we have a first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

How much does online tutoring cost in Southport?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level, starting from around £15 per hour. Each tutor sets their own rates, which are clearly displayed on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget.

Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

It's for so much more! While we have thousands of tutors for academic subjects like Maths, English and Science, you can also find experts to help your child learn a musical instrument, a new language, or even practical skills like coding.

How can online tutoring build my child's confidence?

The one-to-one setting provides a safe space for your child to ask questions without any classroom pressure. When they start to understand topics they previously found difficult, their self-belief grows, which often has a positive impact on their school work in general.

How does an online lesson work?

Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing, so it feels just like your child and the tutor are in the same room. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.

How often should my child have a lesson?

It's completely flexible and up to you. Most families find a regular weekly session works best to build momentum, but you can also book lessons on an ad-hoc basis for extra help before an exam or for a specific topic they're stuck on.

How quickly will I see my child's grades improve?

Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade with regular tutoring. The biggest change parents often notice first is a boost in their child's confidence and a more positive attitude towards their studies.

Can I track my child's progress?

Yes. The best way is to have an open conversation with your child's tutor. They can provide feedback after lessons and work with you to ensure the sessions are meeting your child's goals. Many parents find this partnership really valuable.
